Federico Heinz: The Imperative for Free Software in Government & Public Administration


Heinz is one of the guys behind the adoption of laws requiring
government bodies to use Free Software in various Latin American
countries, particularly Argentina, Peru, and Venezuela. These laws
have met mixed results.



In particular, Heinz argues that use of Free Software is necessary
to fulfill the state's promise the the citizens that their data
which it keeps and processes, will be kept with three principles:
Security. No one should be able to prevent the people who do
have the right to access that data, from doing so

Persistence. How long the data is usable for should be
determined by the government

Transparency. Actions which the laws mandate must be
verifiable by the citizens.


Heinz explains that this can be done through manual procedures, but
when it is done digitally, Free Software must be used.


Ciaran O'Riordan: GPLv3: the process and the changes


A brief presentation of the most significant changes proposed for
version three of the GNU General Public License, and information
about the year-long public consultation process.


Federico Heinz: Free Software and Education


This is a topic that IFSO requested he talk about, and it's
something that's also important to him. Issues such as access to
education are far more acute there than in Ireland.



This should be of particular interest to those evaluating or
advocating the use of Free Software for the software infrastructure
of schools and universities, for the teaching curricula based on
Free Software.
